I have seen the tracks that will be used for AUV class. It is so easy! Tires and final gearing will be the winning factor. So, for those AUVs that want some little offroad escapades just register at the venue before 0800 hours. Only first 40 vehicles will be accepted to join the race! :D

palagay ko, front wheel drive ang CRV di ba? sa arangkada na lang kamote na mga diesel AUV's. kung sasali lahat ng existing models ng AUV, my bet would be CRV vs. Adventure 2.0L gas.
pero power-wise, torque wise, lamang CRV , tapos lamang din sa suspension. driver skills na lang magkakatalo yun. I think the crosswinds won't stand a chance. baka yung mga lumang hilanders pa. pinamabigat body weight ng XUV e. sabagay, traction ang labahan dito. I'd be surprised kung may manalo na diesel dito.
It's not the speed that will win, more of a driving navigational skill. I'd choose a crosswind/highlander over the crv. Be also aware that street tires will have problem with gripping the soil/muds.
Naghahanap nga ako ng mga kaibigan kong naka AUV, balak ko hiramin itatakbo ko sana bukas. May nakita akong 215/70R14 muds na 2nd hand, pwede ko hiramin kasama rims. :D
Race starts at 0900 hours, simultaneous race for track A & B 4WD, plus AUV track. Then sums up the fastest vehicles in A & B track will race on track C.
Registration is upto 0800 hours for all competing vehicles.
The AUVs were sponsored by some Dealerships in Pasig. The Entries were a Crosswind and an early 90's Toyota Tamaraw. Nagtataka kami ni Ungas kung bakit paulit-ulit sil, yun pala change-driver lang.....
all i can say is..... aliw ang Tamaraw pag bumitaw yung hood catch at pumapalo-palo ang hood habang umaandar hehehehe
